.SH NAME
hawki_step_detect_obj \- (OBSOLETE) Object detection recipe

.SH SYNOPSIS
esorex
.B hawki_step_detect_obj
[OPTIONS] FILE.sof

.SH DESCRIPTION
(OBSOLETE) hawki_step_detect_obj \-\- hawki detect objects recipe.
.PP
This recipe detects objects from the combined image creating a mask
and a list of object properties
The input of the recipe files listed in the Set Of Frames (sof\-file)
must be tagged as:
combined.fits COMBINED
The recipe creates as an output:
hawki_step_detect_obj_mask.fits (OBJ_MASK): A mask with 1 where the objects are present and 0 elsewhere
hawki_step_detect_obj_stars.fits (OBJ_PARAM): A table with the detected objects characteristics
Return code:
esorex exits with an error code of 0 if the recipe completes successfully
or 1 otherwise

.SH OPTIONS
.TP
\fB\-\-median_smooth\fR \fI<int>\fR
box size for a median smoothing of the image before the detection
(int; default: 3). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration
file is \fBhawki.hawki_step_detect_obj.median_smooth\fR [default = \fI3\fR].
.TP
\fB\-\-detect_sigma\fR \fI<float>\fR
detection level (float; default: 7.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration
file is \fBhawki.hawki_step_detect_obj.detect_sigma\fR [default = \fI7.0\fR].
.TP
\fB\-\-growing_radius\fR \fI<int>\fR
radius of convolution kernel to apply to objects (int; default: 5). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration
file is \fBhawki.hawki_step_detect_obj.growing_radius\fR [default = \fI5\fR].

.PP
Note that it is possible to create a configuration file containing these
options, along with suitable default values. Please refer to the details
provided by the 'esorex \-\-help' command.
